I am still shocked by how fuel efficient this car is. I got 41mpg (on added ethanol) going to Sacramento from San Francisco despite several bouts of traffic where I screwed up and had to brake a lot of times. I was doing a solid 65mph when the road opened up, and as before it would get around 39mpg doing so. Cruising at 95% of peak efficiency shows how much some other cars leave on the table.

Finding some thicker cardboard for the tail is proving a little challenging. I bought some solar panels on Amazon which had a box that was a nice size but it was pretty beaten up.
